[Introducing my new project: ArdPromSD]

Not sure what needs a change, but they looked nice otherwise.

This is Cromwell but it should be the same file

https://github.com/XboxDev/cromwell/blob/master/drivers/pci/pci.c#L283

Of course the memory size detection routine is in the PCI driver... 

You can change line 319 to be

if (true) {

or you could change line 314 to be

xbox_ram = 64;

I'll compile it real quick and see what happens. Although, looking at it, does it not account for both 64 and 128 with the conditionals there?

Update: Okay, same issues for me after changing 314 to 64 and running make.

The gentoox loader? I thought it used that to boot? Yes, I would like a copy. Thank you.

Oh, right. It can use that, looks like, although the ones I have were using xromwell.

[Alpine Linux for ye old Xbox]

Which boot loader and version should I use? Gentoox, Xromwell / Cromwell? Or is there a different way to launch alpine? I'd like to be using whatever you're using so we're on the same page here.

Ok I just downloaded from my google drive and extracted and seems like something is wrong with the archive, unless the extraction tool I'm using on my windows laptop isn't opening it right. EDIT: nevermind seems like the archive is good on the google drive. Wish I had a 64mb console to test on, hopefully someone else can test just to confirm.

Downloaded again and FTP once more. Same spot it failed as last time.

[Alpine Linux for ye old Xbox]

On it! I'll report back shortly...

Once the rootfs decompresses and it switches to it I have it make a swap currently but that's after the initramfs so going to change it to set up swap earlier in the process. Hopefully this won't significantly slow down the boot process.

Gotcha. Happy to test that for you.

[Alpine Linux for ye old Xbox]

I noticed Alpine has a minimum requirement of 100mb ram, how are you getting around this?

I noticed X-DSL 0.7 is using a swap file, for whatever it's worth.

[Alpine Linux for ye old Xbox]

Tried on a 64mb

I'm going to give it a minute, but it looks like it may be stuck, there is one line below this, but I'm unable to read it.

/home/user/.cache/netsurf/dblk/A
tar: corrupted data
tar: short read
mount: mounting /sys /nrewroot/sys failed: No such file or directory

 

[Can't get X-DSL (Linux) to work. WHY, God?]

Your title mentions X-DSL and your post mentions Gentoox, which is it?

I have X-DSL working already with an applications shortcut xbe and boot option for 480 and 720 if you'd like a copy.

@KaosEngineerWas the led removed from the left side of the first picture?

[Getting CerBIOS to see my F: Partition]

Yeah, Repackinator will do all the work for you, including converting from raw dump into XISO, splitting, removing the video partition, making the Attach xbe, which is Cerbios compatable (also backwards compatible with older bioses.). But you need a PC (Windows/Linux) for that. And in its current version, it only supports the full size raw dump, so no padding removal to shrink them down to a smaller size. 

It's as close as you can get to the real thing, as almost all games should work now without any of the patching that one use to do and without any of the possible tampering that one might have seen with hdd ready versions.

There has been some talk of a new version that will include a "shrink" feature, for those people who have full sets, but don't want to fork out the cash for a 16tb hdd. But I can't say if that will be released any time soon or not, tbh. Either way, it's a really cool app that saw a lot of work go into it, so if you can get access to a PC give a spin.

[How do I mount ISOs in Cerbios 2.03R?]

Maybe try running the latest XMBC4gamers 1.4.001 Test build. Go into settings (controller black button), Downloader, then update the URL Downloader again and finally install the Test build (URL Download will ask to be updated again at some point; kind of odd.)

[Insignia XBL replacement sign-up opened]

Ernegien and I (mostly Ernegien) may or may not have gotten X3CL Skin Database downloader working again! Okay back on topic (we'll make a new thread sometime later.)

[Halloween Special Edition X3CL Skin]

Happy Halloween to all the X3 Config Live Skin lovers out there!

Webclean is a super simple clean skin, now with a Halloween edition.

You can download them all or just grab your favorite one. Enjoy!

See Readme for install instructions.

Note: Lite saw some decent updates as well and Dark had one minor adjustment not worth mentioning.

[Introducing my new project: ArdPromSD]

I can test on the other revisions if you like.

[XBP Table Writer Just went with my games]

You might try rewriting the partition table using Rocky5's version of XBpartitioner. We just talked about this here.

Kind of rough instructions, but let me know if how you get on.

Note: I can't say if this will help or not, but might be worth a try at this point. 

[How do I mount ISOs in Cerbios 2.03R?]

I already mentioned this in the other thread:

You can use the XISO to HDD Script in XMBC4gamers or you can give Repackinator a shot:

 

[Getting CerBIOS to see my F: Partition]

What the! How did that happen lol

Any admins in the house? I can't delete posts.

I'm on XBMC 3.5.3.

I'm not sure, tbh. I usually use XMBC4gamers and its XISO to HDD installer script.

Then again, try Repackinator...

 

[Getting CerBIOS to see my F: Partition]

Aside...

with 2.0.3R if u install UDMA5 & it does not work, pressing eject should default you to UDMA2 and give u chance to recover.

For some reason, IDE drives are over twice the price of an equivalent sized SATA drive. I might as well just get a SATA drive and a startech adapter. Anybody tried the dual HDD feature yet?

And for god's sake, how do I mount isos in Cerbios? Lol.

 

Yeah, and get an 80 pin, then you can try UDMA5 lol.

For mounting ISOs, what dashboard are you using again?

I'm using the UDMA2 version. UDMA5 resulted in no HDD detected.

Oh, right sorry, I was confusing regular stock Cerbios (UDMA2) with UDMA5, disregard

[Getting CerBIOS to see my F: Partition]

Also, in regards to UDMA5:

it needs the [startech] adapter and [80 pin] cable
haven tried with an ide hdd
with 80 pin
without adapter but i imagine crash

He hasn't tested UDMA5 with IDE and as it's suppose to be used with Sata, Startech adapter and 80pin cable, so he was kind of surprised to hear it worked with IDE and didn't crash.
